An Amateur Walking Match.

Mr.. Rufus Smith and Capt. Searcy,
who attended the fair on the South
side. In the neighborhood of Corban-
dale, a few days ago, accompanied
by Mr.. Morris Stratton, walked from
the fair grounds to Corbandale, and
are said to have eclipsed the cele-
brated Weston in their hurry to
avoid being lett. They made mile
and half in incredibly short time,

tlemen coming off second best in the

ing on one of his feet, one of those
painful excrescences resulting from
wearingtight shoes, and Prof. Scar
cy not making any particular preten-
tions as a f'walkist" on long

by the spectators that these gentle
men covered themselves with i'm

A Very Important Decision.


The Supreme court of Tennessee
at Knoxville have decided that,
under the tipping laws Of this State,
a citizen manufacturing wine from
grapes grown on his own land In the
State, has no right to sell il without
license in n smaller quantity than a
quart, or In larger quantity than
quart, to be drank on the premises,
Notwithstanding Article u, Sec. 80
of the Constitution of Tennessee
which provides: "no article manu-
featured of the produce of this State,
shall be taxed otherwise than to pay
inspection fees"
The opinion of the court was de.
livered by Judge Lurton under an
able and Celebrates analysis of the
case, discussing the question fullyand
showing that it would amount to a
virtucal abrogation of the tipping
law OF the State to permit the tip
ping without license of intoxicants
Manufactured of the grain, fruits
and Others produce of the State, and
that the tax in this sort of case is
laid by the State upon the privilege,
and not upon the article taxed, the
Legislature having, under the prin-
ciple distinctly recognized in the case
OF Mayo. and Alderman of Columbia
VS.. Guest Head Ala; Jenkins VS..
Ewin7 Helsk, 456, expressly declared
the tipping Of spirituous or vinuous
liquors a privilege; Rev Act of 1885,
to which there are only two ex-
ceptions: that of manufacturer
who sells to be sold again,
and that of druggists selling wine for
sacramental purposes, and the opin-
ion decides that this sort of selling
does not come under either of the
exceptions, because the wine or
other spurious liquors are not sold
either to be sold again or for sacra-
mental purposes.

A Liberal Burglar.

Mr.. r.. b. Hughes of Saddlersville,
Tenn, had his extensive hardware
and grocery house broken open on
last Saturday night and his safe
rified. Fortunately he had deposited
all of his money in Springfield
bank except $500 which was in the
safe. The liberal and munificent
robber, thinking no doubt, that this
was rather small amount of CAPT al
with which to run such a large es-
Enlistment took the $500, but left
the thirty-flve quarters in its stead,
thinking he would need change.
This was right. 1t is bad rule that
won't work both ways. That theft
must have had some sense of fairness
about him after all. Rob the rich and
help the needy seems to have been
his motto.

IL we believed like the Avalanche
and the American that the utterances
and conduct Of Henry Jackson, JEFF
Davis and others, at the Georgia
State fair at Macon, were ever so
injudicious and out of taste. we
would put our right hand in the fire
before we would make our editorial
pen say so. II fact, we think very
1ar too many apologies have been
made to northern fanaticism for the
course, the history, and the natural
lingering devotion of the southern
people for the living and dead heroes
of a cause, though lost, still dear to
every true southern heart. They are
not appreciated, and do no good
But we will place JEFF Davis, In his
dotage, if you please, shedding tears

so dear to the noble, pure, patriotic
old mans heart, end Mrs Davis

WHILE II must be conceded on the
one hand that a government official
has perfect right If he chooses, as an
American citizen, freely and boldly
TO express his political opinions, on
the other, 1t is equally clear, that the
president has right Shy and with
the advice and consent Of the Sem
ate" or otherwise, to appoint him or
let him alone, or to discharge him, II
he chooses, or should 1t become neces-
sary, to secure harmony in his adj
ministration., III 1t be true that the
doctrine that ito the victors belong
the spoils" Is a dangerous failacy, 1t
Is equally true that the president Is
under no legal or moral obligation TO
retain any man In office. Indiscrim-
mate appointment Of partisan friends
as a reward for partisan services, Is a
vicious practice, but there II no COM
mon sense in saying that president
may not, and should not select those
having eminent fitness and qualifita-
tons for the positions to be filed
from his party friends.
